Public bug reported: Got an imsm raid1 which I don't boot from. Whenever bios reports the raid as being in "Normal" state, mdadm starts a resync of it after boot. If a resync already is underway (bios reports it as being in "Verify" state), it continues where it left off.
This appears to be very similar to a problem in Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=753335 It's apparently fixed there for some time now. (The workaround mentioned in comment 41 in that ticket doesn't work in Ubuntu, but I guess that's due to distro differences in initramfs and systemd.) Using mdadm 3.2.5-5ubuntu4 in a fresh Trusty install. ** Affects: mdadm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1320402 Title: mdadm resyncs imsm raid in "Normal" state To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/1320402/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
